OASIS

LL-00287

Optimizing Access to Services through Integrated EO and AI Solutions for Innovative Societies

Common territorial challenge (s) that will be tackled by the project

The OASIS project addresses a common challenge faced by Latvian and Lithuanian national agricultural agencies: reliance on outdated and inaccurate geospatial data for decision-making. This has led to inefficiencies, with over 17% of Latvia beneficiaries being sanctioned in 2022 for inaccurate agricultural area declarations, while in Lithuania this figure reached 10%.

Project objective

The project’s objective is to help local farmers in Latvian-Lithuanian border regions applying for subsidies under different schemes. By improving the accuracy of agricultural monitoring and control systems, OASIS aims to reduce penalties, field inspections, and costs, ensuring fairer and more efficient support for farmers.

Planned activities

OASIS will organise stakeholder workshops, capacity building programme and communicate the project progress and results in publicity events. The project novelty lies in its use of AI to modernise public services in agricultural monitoring and compliance for Common Agricultural Policy payments. This approach directly benefits the smallholder farmers, improving their access to subsidies and fostering a fairer, more sustainable agricultural system. The main output of the project is an artificial intelligence (AI) tool integrated into national paying agencies control and monitoring division platforms. This tool will produce the super-resolved satellite images to replace on-the-spot checks and develop common data standards. Additionally, datasets will be made publicly available through open-access repositories, benefiting sectoral agencies, local government units and researchers.
